4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Returned from a year off to reach the frame in competitive 1m2f handicaps at York (good) and Newbury (good to soft) last September; sold from the Gosden stable for 58,000gns last autumn and absent for a further 287 days ahead of this return for new yard. |

19th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Reserve; 5yo who has had just seven races, tailed off in C&D Group 2 here in 2024 on his only run on firmer than good; didn't spark again until gelded and finishing close up in 1m2f handicaps at York and Newbury last September; left the Gosdens for 58,000gns in October and cheekpieces are removed on this first run since; it's not the most solid profile but he's worth another go at 1m4f and isn't entirely ruled out. |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |

Posted three duck eggs after his novice wins last term; gelded prior to proving resurgent at York (1m2f, good; close fourth) on belated reappearance; possibilities off same mark if building on that effort. |

3rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Improved last year without quite winning; each-way claims if back to best with first-time headgear after two rather disappointing runs in 2026. |
9/2 |
|
7th 5 (9) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Not quite at his best at Kempton last month but that came after 94 days off and he could improve for it; held up in slowly run race at Kempton in October when 2l fourth on his sole previous crack at 2m, and he may yet be capable of better at this sort of trip; has won here and could be involved. |
11/2 |
|
6th 2 (6) |
2nd Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Won twice in 2024, including over 1m4f on Tapeta; had only five runs last year but he went close on two occasions, including in a Class 2 at Southwell (1m4f) in November; 2lb higher on his return but he hit a personal best last time and he's a key player on this drop back in grade. |

3rd Oct 2025 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Eight-race maiden; reached the frame in three maiden/novice events but he's been well held in three handicaps including in two runs for current yard; mark continues to fall but he weakened when upped to 2m at Kempton last time and others are preferred. |
14/1 |

6th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Seven-race maiden who made no impression over 1m6f most recently; chance of winning depends on how well he reacts to first-time headgear and going up further in distance. |
12/1 |
|
4th 2 (4) |
5th Aug 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who has shown considerable promise; no threat on either start this season, most recently his handicap debut at Goodwood (1m4f) on final run for Raphael Freire; remains in same ownership; needs something extra now up in trip (not bred for it) but not written off. |

16th Jun 2024 Good 1m 3f 197y Class 5 |

550,000gns yearling; perhaps not straightforward as he's been gelded since a disappointing effort last time and now goes in cheekpieces; likely player on debut form but some caution is advised. |

27th May 2024 Good 1m 3f 104y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Out of a very well-related 1m3f winner but he looked inexperienced and was only seventh of 11 behind Theory Of Tides at Nottingham (1m2f, good) 17 days ago; should be more streetwise on this step up in trip but he needs major improvement on his second start. |

Dubawi gelding who is a half-brother to 1m winners Wishfully (RPR 98) and Sense Of Wisdom (RPR 98); dam, 1m3f AW winner (RPR 82), is closely related to Irish 1,000 Guineas winner Nightime (dam of 1m2f-1m4f Group 1 winner Ghaiyyath); in excellent hands and plenty to like on paper so he's a much respected newcomer. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 188y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
5yo who is an improved performer this season and registered career-best form when a close third in C&D Listed race last time, a neck behind Tabletalk; should be bang there once again. |
13/8 |
|
3rd 4 (6) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 5f 188y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
5yo who has been an improved performer on his two starts this season, going close behind Al Qareem at Musselburgh (1m6f, soft; Listed, same terms today) then runner-up in the Group 3 Ormonde Stakes at Chester (13.3f, good) in which Al Qareem flopped; he's firmly in calculations. |
3/1 |

2nd 6 (7) |
7th May 2026 Good 1m 5f 84y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Close second in Listed events at Chester (12.5f) last September and Musselburgh (1m6f) on reappearance, latter behind Al Qareem who gave 5lb and is now better off; further behind that opponent when fifth of six in this race last year; needs a personal best. |

Closer on handicap debut at Yarmouth (11.4f, good to soft) last time but not by much, in third of five, and he needs to improve on this return to AW with headgear first time. |

Ulysses gelding who has shown some promise in his four runs, albeit always in rear when ninth of 11 in 1m2f Nottingham novice (good) 17 days ago; likely to improve on handicap debut. |

No better upped to this trip on his handicap debut in first-time cheekpieces (AW) last month, when finishing last; would want to see good support down 4lb before considering him. |

7th 8 (5) |
15th Jul 2024 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 5 |

Has shown little in three starts but he may well improve now making his handicap debut up in trip in first-time cheekpieces; worth keeping an eye on the betting. |

18th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

Signs of ability in three runs in the summer, his peak RPR coming here (7f) on his second start; not obviously thrown in for his handicap debut but he's unexposed at least. |
